R.I.P. Zac

We lost our cat Zac today. He was 18 years old and we have had him since we lived in NH. Shawn was doing an internship at a law firm and a woman there was trying to find a home for her cat because he was being terrorized by her dogs. She said he spent his life on the counters trying to stay away from the dogs.

AJ was two when we got him. He was so excited to have a pet. They became fast friends. I have many pictures of them (before I owned a digital camera even) taking naps together and just generally hanging out. Zac was the closest thing AJ had to a sibling for many years. He was so gentle with the kids, both ours and others.

His official name was Prozac, and he was aptly named. He was always very calm. Nothing ever seemed to bother him. And when he did get too irritated with things, he simply got up and walked away.

He will be missed.
